the l word

The penultimate episode of Season 2 brought us prom and the return of Angie’s donor, but thankfully spared us the pain of an elementary school recorder concert.

No, I didn’t recap Episode 6 since there wasn’t any parenting content in it, but there’s plenty in Episode 7, so buckle up!

Angie and her moms Bette and Tina, plus Tina’s new fiancée Carrie, visit a therapist to discuss Angie’s feelings about her donor’s big news and how she wants to respond. What could go wrong?

The parenting storylines continue this week on The L Word: Generation Q as Angie gets to know her donor sibling, finds out something troubling about her donor, and seeks help, while Alice deals with her own mother.

The L Word: Generation Q gave us plenty of queer parenting content this week as Angie met her donor sibling and Gigi and Bette debated the experiences of being a nonbiological mom. Let’s recap—and I’ll share some real-life resources about donor siblings and nonbio moms!

The second episode of this season’s The L Word: Generation Q didn’t have nearly as much parenting content as the first—but I still managed to find some, including an unexpected connection to a new children’s book!

The second season of The L Word: Generation Q is off to a flying start, which means it’s once again time for my regular recaps about parenting storylines in the show, which I’ve been doing since the original series! This week are questions about donors and DNA, work-life balance, and risky acts in the school drop-off lane.
